The Insulin Bullet

I almost dodged it this pregnancy. With 7 more weeks of baby cooking I was finally put on insulin today. I thought I'd be bummed out, I really wanted to say I made it one pregnancy without gestational diabetes. I did everything I could to stay off insulin but with my new-found bed rest the inactivity made my sugars slightly elevated. Just enough to require insulin.

I'll still be reporting my blood sugars twice a week to the diabetes center but today was my last appointment and I don't have to go back until January! I feel like I graduated from the endocrinologist today ;)

All in all  I'd say this is a pretty good day.
